Want to keep you from breaking
Want to keep you from faking
Want to keep you from keeping you down

Want to keep you from sinking
Want to keep you from drinking, sometimes
Want to keep you from keeping you down

Ringing in my head
All the things you've said
All the things you've done
I wish I could compromise
But there's only one way to go
And I'm going alone
I'm going alone

Your self-help bookshelf is full now,
Your pictures are about to be pulled down
Without regard for a broken heart
It's another year

Ringing in my head
All the things you've said
All the things you've done
I wish I could compromise
But there's only one way to go

Want to be with you tonight (x2)
No I know it isn't right
Want to be with you tonight

Cause I love the way that you
Shock, shock, shock me
Follow me to my house and then you
Rock, rock, rock me
Want to see your eyes wide not sewed shut.
The queen bee cool don't stop keep up.
Living in the city can be dying
If you don't
Get a grip take a sip from my Molotov mug
Want to keep you from keeping you down
Pick yourself up off the ground

Want to keep you from keeping you down
Come on girl
Ringing in my head
All the things you've said
All the things you've done
I wish I could compromise
I wish I could close my eyes
And somehow make it all alright
But I know there's only one way to go

Miss the way that you
Shock shock shock me
Follow me to my house and then you
Rock rock rock me
Want to see your eyes wide not sewed shut.
The queen bee cool don't stop keep up.
Living in the city can be dying
If you don't
Get a grip take a sip from my Molotov mug
Want to keep you from keeping you down
Pick yourself up off the ground
Pick yourself up off the ground
